You've heard of the Seven Deadly Sins: pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, and sloth. Each is a natural and recurring human weakness that impedes happiness. In addition to these vices, however, there are deadly economic “sins.” They, too, wreak havoc in both our personal lives and in society. They can seem intuitively compelling, yet lead to waste and lost prosperity. Dylan Pahman, Acton's research fellow and executive editor of the Journal of Markets and Morality, sat down with James R. Otteson, author of "Seven Deadly Economic Sins," to discuss his lecture on this very topic during Acton University 2022. Subscribe to our podcasts ‘Seven Deadly Economic Sins' About James R.

We live in a time of cancel culture. A time devoid of reason. A time with so many unwilling to speak truth. My guest today James R. Otteson brings clarity back. You have heard of the Seven Deadly Sins: pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, and sloth. Each is a natural human weakness that impedes happiness. In addition to these vices, however, there are economic sins as well. And they, too, wreak havoc on our lives and in society. They can seem intuitively compelling, yet they lead to waste, loss, and forgone prosperity. James Otteson tells the story of seven central economic fallacies, explaining why they are fallacies, why believing in them leads to mistakes and loss, and how exorcizing them from our thinking can help us avoid costly errors and enable us to live in peace and prosperity.

Before Adam Smith wrote The Wealth of Nations and made his name as an economist, he wrote The Theory of Moral Sentiments, a work of moral philosophy. For Smith, these two subjects informed each other in crucial ways. Economics was not always a siloed discipline, as we often see it today. In this week's episode, Ari discusses moral philosophy and economics with James Otteson, in particular the interdisciplinary nature of these subjects. Is capitalism a moral system? How much should we take morality into consideration when making economic decisions? James R. Otteson, the John T. Ryan Jr. Professor of Business Ethics in the Mendoza College of Business at the University of Notre Dame.

Rabbi Mark Gottlieb is Senior Director of the Tikvah Fund and founding Dean of the Tikvah and Maimonides Scholars at Yale University. Prior to joining Tikvah, Rabbi Gottlieb served as Head of School at Yeshiva University High School for Boys and Principal of the Maimonides School in Brookline, MA.His writing has appeared in First Things, Public Discourse, the University Bookman, the Algemeiner, and the Jewish Review of Books. Rabbi Gottlieb is a member of the Orthodox Forum Steering Committee and serves on the Editorial Committee of Tradition: A Journal of Orthodox Jewish Thought. The Rabbi joins Rabbi Kivelevitz to discuss leadership training education, how candidates are vetted and eventually selected, and what constitutes the main focus of the seminars and lectures the fellows attend.Rabbi Gottlieb sees the personal interview as a primary factor, over the grades and reports from the student's teachers, as well as the essays the applicants submit.He illustrates how hobbies and interests are in many ways an indicator of the thought leader that Tikvah is eager to engage.Rabbi Gottlieb distinguishes between the program geared for students who are moderately affiliated with the traditional Jewish community (Maimonides Scholars) and the program serving products of predominantly (but not exclusively) Orthodox day schools (Tikvah Scholars).The Rabbis discuss the balance between general literacy and skills in reading and parsing Jewish texts, and the importance of staffing the leadership seminars with passionate, gifted instructors.Rabbi Gotttlieb describes the incredible effect resulting from the hiring of persons like the eminent American philosopher and political economist Professor James R. Otteson, who not only opened the Tikvah students’ eyes to the important theories that form the basis of classical liberal political order, he illustrated how this technically underdetermined dynamic is at play in Klal Yisroel’s innate understanding of who the Gadolei HaDor are.When questioned by Rabbi Kivelevitz as to why Tikvah has not attempted to cull their young potential from completely Charedi schools, where the boys (and, separately, young women) have the advantage of strong text proficiency and analysis, Rabbi Gottlieb pointed to Tikvah's role in Eretz Yisroel in catering programs and Torah journals to the Charedi world, and its discovery and cultivation of Rabbi Yehoshua Pfeffer, a student of Rav Asher Weiss, who now serves as head of Tikvah's Haredi Israel division.Rabbi Gottlieb speaks about Tikvah's connections to R' Aharon Kotler, the CEO of Bais Medrash Gevohah, but admits that there is more work to be done in reaching those special Talmidim in the Chasidish and Litvisha yeshivos, who could perhaps through the exposure to greater Western thought take their place as an accepted Gadol ready to tackle the formidable challenges that lay ahead for our people.Listen for the championing of some of the ideas of Pope John Paul II concerning the dignity of the human person, and the significance of Theology in applying and advocating for religious concepts in a modern world. There is also a casual reference to Mark Twain, and an oblique shadow of Phillip Roth.

Now the land belongs to the Maryland National Capital Park and Planning Commission., and the U.S. Court of Appeals has declared the cross unconstitutional. First Liberty is now working on behalf of American Legion and a court ruling is expected in June. In the second segment, executive producer of Acton Line, John Couretas, speaks with author and political economist, James R.
